About this Event
🌵🌿 Bloom Bingo Social: Desert vs. Rainforest Edition 🌿🌵
Interactive • Educational • Social
More than a game night, Bloom Bingo Social is an interactive experience designed for plant lovers, curious beginners, and anyone looking to connect with their community in a fun and unique way.
This special edition asks one important question...
Which Plant Parent Are You?
Are you Team Desert, where plants thrive on sunshine and a little neglect? Or are you Team Rainforest, where lush leaves, humidity, and tropical vibes reign supreme?
Throughout the afternoon you'll compete for plants from opposite ends of the plant spectrum, learn fascinating facts about each environment, and maybe even discover which plant parent you truly are.

🌿 Team Rainforest

Possible prizes include:
- 🌿 Monstera Deliciosa
- 🌿 Alocasia
- 🌿 Bird of Paradise
- 🌿 Calathea
These lush favorites thrive with a little extra humidity and lots of love.

🪴 10 Rounds of Bloom Bingo
Enjoy multiple opportunities to win plants throughout the afternoon. Every Bingo prize will be either a native desert plant or a native rainforest plant, so every win is a surprise.
🌱 Take-Home Succulent
Every guest leaves with their own plant to start—or grow—their collection.
📖 Plant Care Cards
Every plant prize and take-home succulent comes with an easy-to-follow care guide and a fun fact, making it simple to care for your newest plant companion.
🌿 Plant Tips & Fun Facts
Learn interesting facts throughout the game about desert and rainforest ecosystems, watering habits, lighting, and what makes each plant unique.
🧼 Complimentary Plant Care Station
Before heading home, stop by our plant care station to wipe down your new plant's leaves and treat it with our eco-friendly plant spray made with Castile soap, neem oil, water, and alcohol. Bags will also be provided to carry your plant babies home safely.
🧠 Intermission Trivia
Take a break from Bingo and test your knowledge with a fun round of general trivia featuring questions about pop culture, music, history, geography, food, entertainment, and more. Totally optional!
Trivia winners will receive small garden plants, and one lucky participant will take home a houseplant care book to continue growing their plant knowledge.
